Meet the most level-headed of the Clan Kendrick brothers  and the independent woman who steals his heart in the fifth installment of USA Today bestselling author Vanessa Kelly’s intoxicating series set in Regency Scotland...

Filled with saucy wit, surprising twists, and unforgettable lovers, the latest novel in USA Today bestselling author Vanessa Kelly’s captivating historical romance series puts the most level-headed Kendrick at the center of a passionate and perilous adventure . . .
 
It’s Christmastime in Edinburgh, but Lady Samantha Penwith’s secret mission takes no holiday: the Highlands-born lass vows to find the assailants who murdered her beloved husband, founder of a charitable school for orphaned boys. On her latest undercover excursion, she closes in on a pair of armed attackers and interrupts another assault, then disappears into the darkness, leaving the lone victim mystified—and lucky to be alive . . .
 
Braden Kendrick may be the sensible brother, yet the dedicated doctor routinely ignores the dangers of his late-night calls to the city’s slums. But when a fleet-footed rescuer saves his life, he’s determined to uncover the stranger’s identity. And once he does, he’ll find himself facing his own past loss for the first time—and more than willing to risk his heart again, just in time to make the Clan Kendrick’s Christmas celebrations more festive than ever . . .

Praise for The Highlander's Holiday Wife

Praise for Vanessa Kelly’s Clan Kendrick Series

“The tone is lively and bright, the dialogue pitch-perfect for 1820s Britain, and for readers who relish extended scenes of humorous banter, this is a delightful read.” —Historical Novel Society on The Highlander’s Irish Bride
 
“In the third book of the “Clan Kendrick” series, Kelly (The Highlander Who Protected Me) continues to show her skill at pairing witty banter and adventure-driven characters in a late-Regency romance. Fun for readers who prefer a heroine who does as much rescuing as the hero.” —Library Journal on The Highlander’s English Bride
 
“A Vanessa Kelly historical romance is a lot like being at a carnival: It’s a whirlwind of fun with the lightness of cotton candy, the rush of a tilt-a-whirl and the satisfaction of a night well planned. There are few better choices than than this bubbly romance that delivers a heartwarming happily ever after.” —Bookpage on The Highlander’s English Bride
 
“Splendid moments of wit, chemistry, action, and heartwarming family dynamics,” —Kirkus Reviews on The Highlander’s English Bride
 
“The Highlander’s English Bride is the third in Kelly’s Clan Kendrick series, and while it gives a nod to the earlier stories, the story has been well-crafted to stand either in line or independently.” —Historical Novel Society on The Highlander’s English Bride
